Himalayas - 421 (Picus chlorolophus)

Himalayas - 421 ...

There ... in this
Ashram ... where we
stay during our work
at the Medical Camp ...

... is growing a
lovely small-mid
sized tree ...
... laden with
luscious fruits ... that
birds find so
irresistible ...
... they will keep
visiting it despite
the great crowd
of patients and
their relatives
that collected close
to the tree ... walking
underneath it ...

2500 plus patients
came to the camp in
three days ... majority
of them visiting
2-3 specialties ...
